The Japanese Yen has staged a little fightback against the US Dollar, and it may well have further to run. However, it may be too late in the year to entirely trust this move

Traders are further net-long than yesterday and last week, and the combination of current sentiment and recent changes gives us a stronger USDJPY-bearish contrarian trading bias.

Liquidity is leaking from the markets fast as the year&rsquo;s end approaches. That means the ability to leverage technical breaks or reversals into more meaningful runs is growing more and more fraught. And, that is what makes the Dollar&rsquo;s and Dow&rsquo;s moves to end this past week so provocative.

Despite seemingly good news to support the broad demand picture, crude has only moved sideways after falling 33% from the early October high leading traders to wonder if more pain is on the way.

The DXY Dollar Index managed to charge to its highest level since June 2017 this past Friday. The insinuation of a breakout fueled by a &lsquo;demand for alternatives&rsquo; against a known liquidity drain raises serious trading considerations.
